Description

This plug-in will let you add image credits to posts and pages. It does this by adding a button to your Text editor called ‘credit’. Pressing the button conjures up a form that will let you fill out fields about the image, such as the name of the creator, and the URL of the license under which you are using the image.

Press submit, and the plug-in will paste a nicely formatted string to the end of your editor.

I am currently a happy user of my own plugin, and foresee no major changes in the future. Please let me know if there is any feature you could use.

Note that currently only the text editor is supported.

Requirements

Javascript.

WordPress editor tab “Text”.
